Say Hello to the Croft Crew
Our animals are part of the family here at Sterlochy. The sheep grow cosy wool that Eileen loves to spin in the winter, the pigs are our happy little rotavators turning soil for planting, and the free-range hens keep busy laying eggs we sell locally. And don’t miss our adorable pygmy goats—full of personality, always curious, and guaranteed to steal the show (and maybe a nibble of your snack if you’re not careful!). They all live long, peaceful lives—no meat, just mischief!

Maggie & Morag
Very much part of the crew — just not the kind that hangs around for group photos!
This mother-daughter duo was rescued from a derelict garage by Tain Cat Protection and now call the croft home.
Mostly unseen but always around, they drift through the fields like furry shadows — hunting, patrolling, and ignoring everyone equally.
Catching a glimpse? Consider yourself lucky.
* An actual photograph of Maggie and Morag is not available – stealth is kind of their thing.
Camping, the Croft Way
Whether you fancy a snug wooden cabin or a roomy tipi under the stars, each stay includes your own private utility block with a simple kitchen, toilet, and washing area—everything you need for a relaxed, off-grid retreat.
